We're diving into planting bare root lupines. Lupines are known for their stunning spikes of colorful flowers, making them a favorite in our garden. Join us as we go through the process of planting bare root lupines, whether you're starting from scratch or adding to your existing garden. When planting bare root lupines, it's important to set them out as the soil warms in spring. Spread the roots gently with your fingers, being careful not to bury the crown to prevent rotting. In regions with mild winters, lupines can also be planted in early fall for a head start on next year's blooms. Once planted, young lupine plants need regular watering, especially during periods of growth. Bonus tip: Adding a surface mulch not only suppresses weeds but also helps retain soil moisture, keeping your lupines healthy and vibrant.

Phlox are hard to grow from seed... but not from bare roots. That's what we'll do in this quick video. Join me as we plant up our bare root phlox from our friends at @blomsterverdendanmark Phlox are one of our favorites here in our Danish garden... mainly for their beauty and delightful fragrance. And, these flowers are a low-maintenance gem. (who doesn't love that?!) Looking for a great cut flower? With its vibrant and long-lasting blooms available in a rainbow of colors, phlox adds a splash to any floral display. When it comes to cultivating phlox in your garden, there are 2 primary methods: sowing seeds or planting bare roots. As I mentioned, I think it's quite hard to collect the seeds of phlox. Bare root plants, dormant and nurtured in nurseries before being distributed, are an eco-friendly solution over buying a plastic-grown-container one in your garden center. Here's a simple guide to planting bare root phlox: 1. Source your bare roots from reliable suppliers. 2. Choose a location in your garden, preferably one with full sun exposure OR start with a pot like we do in our video. 3. If you're planting outside, ensure spacing of at least 30cm between plants. 4. Whether you're potting or planting outdoors, untangle the roots and hydrate them with water before planting if necessary. 5. Plant the roots and backfill the soil, ensuring they are adequately settled but not compacted in. When is the best time to plant? April, May, June Phlox thrives when planted in late spring, after the threat of frost has passed, allowing them ample time to establish themselves. Let me know if you're growing phlox in your garden.

The best reason for growing Hollyhocks from bare roots is that you'll get flowering the first season... instead of growing them from seed and having to wait a year before they flower. With that in mind, today we're planting our bare root Hollyhocks from our friends at @blomsterverdendanmark Hollyhocks (Alcea) are loved in cottage gardens. These beautiful flowers boast pink, white, and yellow blooms that rise on towering spikes. They can reach a height of up to 6 feet. Supported by sturdy stems, the flowers sit atop rugged, large foliage that gradually diminishes in size towards the top of the stalk. Perfect for adding height and charm to the back border or lining fences and walls, hollyhocks blooms make lovely cut flowers or can be dried for arrangements.

It's time to plant our dahlia tubers! And we're doing it now in the early spring to guarantee earlier blooms. Follow along as we go through the simple steps to prep and plant dahlia tubers for a head start on the flowering season. We're growing dahlias from our friends at Blomster Verden: @blomsterverdendanmark They've sent us beautiful colors ranging from Mango Madness and Zorro to Boom Boom White, Capetown, Aphrodite, Wishes n Dreams, Tahiti Sunrise, Ace Summer Sunset, and more. Here's how we plant ours: First things first, take a moment to trim off any shriveled, moldy, or dry growth from your dahlia tubers. This ensures they're in top shape for planting. Next, grab your pot and add a few handfuls of potting soil to the bottom. Then, gently hold the tuber by its stem and nestle it into the soil in the pot. Make sure it's snug but not buried too deep. Then, carefully fill in the pot with more potting soil until the tuber is completely covered, leaving just the tip of the stem exposed. Following these simple steps sets your dahlia tubers up for success, promising a vibrant and early display of blooms. We'll store them indoors until we're ready to plant outdoors.

In this video, I'll show you the easiest way to grow your own Hellebores without spending a dime. And we'll go over 2 of my favorite varieties in the garden now — Helleborus orientalis and Helleborus foetidus (the stinky hellebore). How to get Hellebores for free: 1. Baby Seedlings: Keep an eye on the ground around your Hellebores, especially this time of year in the early spring. You might spot tiny seedlings sprouting from last year's seeds. With their shiny green leaves, these little ones are easy to transplant. At this time of year these leaves will be on top of a little stalk that’s about 2-3 cm tall.Just scoop them up gently with a trowel, keeping the soil intact when possible, and relocate them to their new home. They won't even notice the move. 2. Let Them Self-Seed: Allow your Hellebores to self-seed throughout your garden. Each new seedling will be a unique blend of its parents, adding to the tapestry of colors and shapes in your landscape. Who knows what colors you'll get? 3. Divide Them: While they don't particularly love being divided, you can do it in the late autumn. We'll talk more about that in the video. Unlike some finicky flowers, Hellebores are resilient. You can plant them year-round, as long as the ground isn't frozen. Keep an eye out for bargain finds at garden centers, even in the summer months. Once they're settled in, though, they prefer to stay put, so choose their spot wisely. Of course, no garden is without its challenges. For Hellebores, the main problem is leaf spot, a pesky fungal infection that mars their foliage. Stay vigilant and remove any affected leaves promptly to keep your plants looking their best.
